ELASTIC-ROLLER SAS-BEAIREIL` y Specification of Letters Patent No. 7,267, dated Apri1"9,"185.

To aZZ'fwLom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JULIUs A. PEAsE, of Philadelphia, in the State vof Pennsylvania, have invented an Improvement in 'Sash- Supports; and I do hereby declare the fol-y lowing to be a full, clear, and exact description of same. Y

The nature of my invention consists in the combination and arrangement `of an elastic roller A with a shaft through the center B and a box for said shaft to'play in C, of which the following is a description,l taken in connection with the drawings forming a part of this specilication.

I construct the roller A of india' rubber or other elastic substance. In lthe center I place the shaft B. The ends ofsaid shaft F F I place in the journals H H, in the'box C, in which they play. The box is placed into the side of the frame G or into the sash E, the elastic roller is left projecting abovel the surface of the rameor sash suiciently to hold the sash iny any desired position by arrangement, but

friction, and is so regulated as to allow it lto be moved `with. ease. 4I' use, one roller to a VIV2 5 sash or 'more ,Whentwo are usedv I'place them opposite each other. The elastic rollers donot wear the 'sash and consequently" l do not get out of order easily. When they w do get vout of order they-are remedied by placing aslip y of wood'behind'the box and vpressing.itrforward-so as to give morel pressureof the roller upon the sash.

I am aware that anunelastic roller or'roll` ers pressedragainst either the sash or vt-he frame by springs has been' employed to supv port window sash. I do notclaim such an What I doclaim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is-V n v -The combination of an elastic roller with. n l a shaft and boxthe wholeconstructed and arranged as before described `for they purpose of supporting a sashin any desired position.
